Description Paul Webster CLA 2010-08-11 13:55:56 EDT
/opt/public/common/ibm-java2-142 no longer points to a JDK (just a JRE) and that has broking the e4/eclipse 4.1 builds.

Just logging the history: it was an empty folder when I came across it, which I then removed and recreated as a symlink to an already-installed JRE.

:/opt/public/common/j2sdk1.4.2_19 seems to be a full SDK.  Can you use that?
Comment 3 Paul Webster CLA 2010-08-11 14:25:12 EDT
does it make sense to symlink from ibm-java2-142 to j2sdk1.4.2_19?

AFAIK the Sun/Oracle JDK will work for us.  But my scripts expect a JDK at ibm-java2-142 (AFAIK for PDE build it's mostly for the jars).

I've reduced the severity (I have a workaround).  But I can see that having this directory missing can cause existing builds (including any respins of older builds) to fail.

I've added the symlink.
